The Samsung Series 5 550P Laptops Thread

^ Well you have amazing temperatures then.

But posts in this very thread have shown temps around 91 degrees. Yes I know ivy bridges can operate till 105. I know that considering that,91 is okay.I know the dv6 has been reported to run at 97. and yes I know I can use a cooler.

The troublesome part is that what will happen after an year when dust accumulates inside(yes cleaning even after cleaning the vents). and also have absolutely no experience with samsung's customer care.

Damn this laptop is good. But these few nagging issues are making me think.

Can u post the link?
Here, look at the bottom side "Stretched Image / Wrong Aspect Ratio" and apply various patches thoughtfully.

I think you could got this by yourself by searching on google after I mentioned it. Please take a little care on giving some efforts by yourself and not depend on others for the things you can get by your own effort. Kindly Don't take it personally as this is becoming common on almost everywhere... :|

Also have you tried the previous TWO for getting on fullscreene? Posting your feedback will always help people to get answer without being asking same questions...

Firstly Congratz on the purchase:).....Secondly stay calm dude, its no big deal...idle temps can be from 45-60 degree's, and while gaming it can go upto 85-90, the max I got was 89 degree's after playing Max Payne 3 for more than an hour, but mines an i5 processor, i7 can be higher I guess, and ivy bridge temps are on the higher side, if you're still concerned, get a cooling pad, also don't forget to change fan speed to "Turbo Mode" while gaming ...Fn + F11

Guys I mentioned this earlier, I've installed Max Payne 3, the gameplay is decent during the first 10-15 mins i.e 40-50 fps, but then there is a drastic drop in frame rate to 8-10 fps, it stays at 8-10 fps for about 30-50 seconds, this happens even when paused!!! then it goes back up to 40-50 fps, and occurs again after every 2 mins. so every time there's a drop in frame rate I have to pause and wait for the fps to increase:-x, its really frustrating . This happens to NFS Hot pursuit also, but not as often.
the temperature is around 80-87 degree Celsius while gaming
I thought its a driver problem, so installed a Beta version driver released by Nvidia, but the problem remains. any ideas? is anybody facing something similar?
all settings are at high (not very high),
Vsync on, MXAA off, FXAA 4x......MP3 players what settings are you using and what frame rate do you get?
